Kyle M Hall d08c330b5c Bug 24330: When importing patrons from CSV, automatically strip BOM from file if it exists
We have a partner that exports UTF-8 CSV files, and is experiencing the same thing as the author of this article: https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/a-quick-tale-about-feff-the-invisible-character-cd25cd4630e7/

In short, Excel is inserting an invisible UTF-8 character at the start of the file, so that the column name "cardnumber" is actually named "\x{feff}cardnumber", causing "cardnumber" to be blank.

A simple solution is provided here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24390034/remove-bom-from-string-with-perl

Test Plan:
1) Download the example.csv file
2) Attempt to import it using the patron import tool
3) Note the invalid column name error
4) Apply this patch, restart all the things!
5) Attempt the import again
6) Assuming you have a branchcode MPL and a cataegory code S, the patron should import!
